The Oxford Square came to life Tuesday evening as the Christmas lights were turned on at dusk.
Lights were draped from the storefronts to the clock tower on the Lafayette County Courthouse that created a canopy, or a carousel effect of lights around the center of the Square.
The lights were turned on at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday right before the Oxford Board of Aldermen meeting at 5 p.m. Along with the canopy lights, the regular Square Christmas lights, including the colorfully-lighted crepe myrtle trees, were also be turned on.
